Savory Brown Butter Pineapple Corn Muffins: A Tropical Twist!
  • Prep Time

  • Total Time
    35 mins

Ingredients

  • Half a cup of unsalted butter
  • Three-quarters cup of chopped sweetened dried pineapple
  • A cup of all-purpose flour
  • A cup of yellow cornmeal
  • Half a teaspoon of baking soda
  • Half a teaspoon of salt
  • A cup of buttermilk
  • Two large eggs

Step 1

Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Get your muffin pan ready by lining it with cute paper muffin liners, then give them a light spritz of cooking spray for easy muffin release.

Step 2

In a sturdy saucepan, melt some butter over medium heat until it transforms into a lovely golden brown hue. Once ready, take it off the heat and mix in some juicy pineapple, allowing the flavors to meld together as they steep for a delightful 20 minutes.

Step 3

While the pineapple infusion is brewing, take a moment to whisk together a blend of flour, cornmeal, baking soda, and a pinch of salt until they harmonize perfectly. Set this dry mix aside for later use.

Step 4

Now, in a spacious bowl, combine tangy buttermilk, eggs, and the aromatic pineapple concoction. Whisk away until the mixture turns into a smooth, heavenly blend, which should take approximately 1 minute. Gradually introduce the flour mixture to the buttermilk mix, gently whisking until just harmonized.

Step 5

Next, evenly distribute the batter into your awaiting muffin cups and pop them into the preheated oven. Let them bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin emerges clean, signaling their readiness, usually around 25 minutes. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a brief 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 6

Pro tip: For an extra touch of sweetness, sprinkle some powdered sugar on top before serving, and enjoy these delectable pineapple-infused muffins at any time of the day!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your muffins fresh by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature. This will help prevent them from drying out.
  2. 2. To enhance the flavor of your muffins, try storing them in the refrigerator. The cool temperature can intensify the brown butter and pineapple flavors, creating a more decadent taste experience.
